Tinubu Not to Blame for Nigeria’s Economic Woes – Governor Umo Eno

Akwa Ibom State Governor, Pastor Umo Eno, has stated that President Bola Tinubu is not responsible for the economic difficulties currently facing Nigeria.

Speaking with State House correspondents on Tuesday after a meeting with Vice President Kashim Shettima at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, Governor Eno emphasized the need for national unity and support for the President in navigating the country through these challenging times.

“President Tinubu didn’t create the problem we are in right now. For me, I believe he is doing his best, and he should be supported to finish strong,” Eno said, describing the President’s first two years in office as “wonderful” and focused on tackling inherited challenges.

The Governor also highlighted key accomplishments from his own administration in Akwa Ibom, including progress in education, healthcare, road infrastructure, and rural development. He noted that while the first phase of his tenure emphasized grassroots development, the next phase would prioritize large-scale infrastructure projects aimed at transforming the state into a hub for economic activity and tourism.

Labour Party Lawmakers as an Appendage to APC Majority Lawmakers: A Huge Question Mark on Peter Obi’s Leadership

Image
  The Labour Party (LP) made an unprecedented impact in the 2023 general elections, largely due to the influence of Mr Peter Obi and the Obidient movement. Before then, it was almost unthinkable for a third-force party to achieve significant electoral success in Nigeria. However, against all odds, the LP secured eight senatorial seats and 34 seats in the House of Representatives as of March 7, 2023. Among those elected were individuals from humble backgrounds, including a former commercial motorcyclist and a motor park loading agent, further reinforcing the movement’s appeal to ordinary Nigerians. Labour Party’s Crisis and the Loss of Legislative Influence To the disappointment of many supporters, the Labour Party is currently experiencing severe internal disarray. At least one senator and five members of the House of Representatives have defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). Even more concerning is that the remaining LP lawmakers in the National Assembly appear ...

Forbidden Flames.... Torchlight for Twilight.

By Ogbu A.M. The traffic buzzed outside their Lekki apartment as Emeka sat quietly in the living room, his eyes fixed on his phone, though his mind was miles away. Lagos had a way of wearing people out—but nothing had worn him down like what he’d just learned. His best friend, Charles, had dropped the bomb casually while they shared beers at a bar in Victoria Island. "Guy, I no dey try cause wahala, but I think say you suppose know wetin your wife dey do. Ngozi talk say Chioma dey knack her oga for office. That Ndubisi guy." It had hit Emeka like a slap. For days, he pretended he hadn’t heard it. But now, as he watched Chioma humming in the kitchen, moving gracefully like nothing was wrong, he knew Charles wasn’t lying. Her phone was always face-down. Late meetings. A new perfume. The soft smile she had when she texted someone she wouldn’t name. And then there was Ngozi—Chioma’s younger sister. She had moved in temporarily while job-hunting, according to Chioma. Young, v...
